Far Cry 4

"Our great and glorious King who has risked his life and limb to bring Kyrat out of the past. He sacrifices everything for his adopted homeland and loves its people like his own children. May Pagan's light shine upon you all."- Quote from Pagan Min

I remember very well playing Far Cry 3 for the very first time and it has to be the best experience I ever had with a game, and it was my number favorite game of 2012. I was really really looking forward to this game and I was literally counting down the months for it's release , then I heard that the 4th game is like the third game and I mean copy and paste but with a different villain of cause. Now I have finally played the damn game that I'm be waiting for and... Far Cry 4 reminds me why I loved Far Cry 3 so much, because this is in my opinion the best game of 2014.

Yes I'm a ware that it's the same game, but I liked Far Cry 3 and this game is the same as Far Cry 3 so I liked Far Cry 4, simple as. It may not be as good as Far Cry 3 but let me tell it's pretty damn close.

What I always look forward to is the villain in these games and Pagan Min maybe the best villain of 2014. I loved his very first scene where he straps one of his soldier's in the throat and then starts apologizing to you and then takes a selfie with you. What a opening to a villain. Troy Baker played Pagan Min and boy did he do spectacular has the villain and this guy has voiced so many game character's that most of them are on my best list, this guy is awesome.

The graphs in this game are just so beautiful and so gorgeous to look at, the character modes as well look clean and fresh.

For problems? yeah like the main character of the game Ajay Ghale is a pretty bland character if I must say. I didn't really feel for him and he was kind of there and that's it.

Overall Far Cry 4 has I said may not be has good as Far Cry 3, but it dose leave you wanting another Far Cry game and in my books that's alright because I'm the same.

A few months ago I played and finished Far Cry 4, from the beginning to end I was loving it! Now, voice acting isn't spot on as well as animation, but what can you fully expect from a game of 2014? All and all amazing!

I'd never played one before but my friend insisted I had to buy this one so we could play together -- he wanted to take advantage of the co-op. Truthfully, I went expecting to hate it. Just didn't seem up my alley. In reality, I ended up really enjoying myself. Not a masterpiece but still a great time!

As I am from India, I was fascinated by so much of Indian vibes in the game like characters, places and language 😂.

It was fun completing the missions, storyline was properly focussed on the main objective Freedom for Kyrat.

It is set in arround beautiful mountains which again resembles Mount Everest region from India and different animals.

Playtime was about 15 hours for me, but you can still explore the vast map and try to achieve 100% completion.

The game will not get your bored.

After being pleasantly surprised by Far Cry 3, my anticipation for Far Cry 4 was high. This installment takes place in a fictional country inspired by Nepal, where you return to pay your respects to your late mother, only to encounter Pagan Min, the game's main antagonist. What follows is a tense encounter that leads you to join the resistance and embark on a quest to overthrow him.

Gameplay-wise, Far Cry 4 feels very similar to its predecessor. While there are some improvements and new abilities, the core mechanics largely mirror those of Far Cry 3. This isn't necessarily a bad thing-if you enjoyed the previous game, you'll likely appreciate the familiar feel of combat, exploration, and crafting. However, it's hard not to notice that Ubisoft seems to be sticking to a well-worn formula, raising questions about the series' innovation.

The game features a variety of content, including a main narrative, side quests, and numerous activities. These activities range from base capturing and animal hunting to racing and arena combat. The action set pieces are engaging, and the main missions deliver thrilling moments, though they include more exposition than in the past. While this adds some depth to the story, it can also slow the pace at times.

Technically, the game performs well, with improved graphics that enhance the visual experience. However, it's worth noting that a jungle environment generally offers more vibrant visuals than the mountainous landscapes featured in this game. The soundtrack is serviceable, though it may not leave a lasting impression. The voice acting is strong, particularly Troy Baker's performance as Pagan Min, which adds a compelling dimension to the character.

The addition of new gameplay elements, such as flying a gyrocopter and riding elephants, injects some fresh excitement into the experience. These features allow for engaging gameplay moments and contribute to the overall enjoyment of the game.

In terms of story, while I found the narrative in Far Cry 3 to be more compelling, Far Cry 4's story is still worth engaging with. It has its highlights and twists, but I won't delve into specifics to avoid spoilers.

I spent about 30 hours completing the game, and while I enjoyed my time with it, I couldn't shake the feeling that the sequel curse was in play. The experience lacked the same sense of novelty that I felt during my playthrough of the previous installment.

Overall, I'd rate Far Cry 4 an 8/10. It offers a solid gameplay experience with familiar mechanics and engaging set pieces, but it doesn't quite capture the same magic as its predecessor. If you're a fan of the series, you'll find plenty to enjoy; just don't expect a groundbreaking leap forward.
